Manchester United Home Shirt for 2012-13 Season: Officially Unveiled [PHOTOS]

Manchester United has unveiled their new home shirt for the 2012-13 season.

According to the club, Manchester United’s new home jersey is inspired by the club’s rich history and close bond with the heritage of Manchester. “This relationship is represented by the striking gingham print which runs through the shirt – a tribute to the world-famous fabric that powered Manchester’s growth from a small market town to a global centre of cotton textiles. Its iconic checked pattern remains an enduring symbol of the city’s culture today.”

A motto on the inside of the shirt’s collar reads, ‘Forged in Industry, Striving for Glory.’
